It is reported that the Web3 game platform MOBOX is about to launch a new game Dragonverse Neo and start closed beta testing. Dragonverse Neo is an open world game co-created and co-governed by the community. It marks MOBOXs focus on building an open, sustainable and prosperous economic system. It will also be the first game to debut on BTC L2 this year.
The development of chain games is changing with each passing day
Driven by the continuous promotion of technology geeks who advocate the concept of decentralization, Web3 has achieved diversified development, which also allows cryptocurrency enthusiasts around the world to see more possibilities. From the initial dominance of BTC, to the rise of ETH, to the rise and fall of public chains and cross-chains, they all reveal the power of change.
Chain games, as an important part of the encryption ecosystem, can become the focus of capital every year.
Chain Games 1.0, originated from the EOS DICE type in 2018, can be launched with a few days of simple development. It is a page game with a preference for online gambling, and later slowly evolved into the Web3 version of Minecraft with a vast scene Decentraland , and then to player competitive games that began to take shape with story copies, similar to the Web3 version of Fantasy Westward Journey Axie Infinity, which is also the Axie that once created the myth of players becoming rich.
From the evolution along the way, we are seeing that the playability of chain games based on distributed technology is gradually moving closer to the evolutionary path of many centralized classic games, and even has the meaning of leading in a sense, from point to line, from point to line, from From online to online, this new type of game force is quietly rising at an extremely fast rate every year.
The only difference is that in the once popular centralized games, all production factors belong to the game manufacturers, but the game assets of chain games belong entirely to the players, and even the development direction of the game depends on each chain game user.
In addition to game playability, the core point of chain games is what we often call P2E. This was once an important factor in whether every chain game could become popular.
Here, I have to focus on Dragonverse Neo, launched by MOBOX, which is known as the new paradigm of blockchain games.
Dragonverse Neo redefines the new paradigm of blockchain gaming
Recently, Dragonverse Neo created by MOBOX is about to be released. It is understood that Dragonverse Neo is an open world game co-created and co-governed by the community.
What impressed me for the first time was its movie-level picture quality and anime-style visual reshaping. MOBOX has greatly improved the game quality through game engine upgrades, which is different from typical chain games in the pre-GameFi era, including Axie Infinity, and even MOBOX itself. There are significant differences between previous products.
In several official posters and promotional videos revealed earlier, we can be pleasantly surprised to find that the entire game style is more like walking in an anime movie. The scenes and character designs are exquisite, and the exquisitely dressed player characters are free and easy. Wander in a game like Neverland and gain a 3D immersive experience.
In fact, in the field of chain games, exquisite AAA masterpieces are not unheard of, but 3D games that can take into account rapid iteration and even allow users to participate in the iteration are set by MOBOX.
Co-create: Participate in DIY games by burning $MBOX
In addition to beautiful graphics and interesting dungeon missions, user-generated content (UGC) is a core element of Dragonverse Neo. In Dragonverse Neo, every MOBOX player has the opportunity to participate in all aspects of DIY gaming by burning $MBOX.
The P2E mechanism of traditional chain games guides players to play games mechanically in order to make gold. They even get tired of the tedious process of the game and start to use scripts to open multiple windows and hang up to make gold. When economic value becomes the only meaning of the game, with a single economic path (dig, offer and sell) and a single role in the game ecosystem (gold players), the economic model itself will quickly collapse like a death spiral.
User-generated content (UGC) introduces more diverse players and more diverse asset application scenarios, keeping the game fresh while helping to maintain the stability of the in-game economy. Players exert influence by creating content, adding layers and complexity to the game world. This design that gives players creative power promotes deeper game connections and gives game assets more essential intrinsic value. The anti-inflation design allows game assets to dynamically develop and increase in value as the game continues to iterate.
It is worth mentioning that the game engine used by MOBOX supports a visual programming method. Players can easily DIY and contribute content to the game without having any coding or modeling foundation.
The game has listed all packaged component types for players in advance, including buildings, equipment, special effects, background music, etc. Players only need to drag these components to build game props that are unique to the users own style preferences. Characters and maps allow endless possibilities to be born from the endless creativity of players.
Co-governance: a chain game that represents the will of the community
Another concept implemented in Dragonverse Neo is community co-governance. MOBOX players and $MBOX holders can decide the future direction of the game. This is the most essential difference from the traditional centralized game production model.
In traditional games, players’ game assets belong to game developers, and developers can freeze player accounts at will or even force them to recycle players’ game equipment and assets; in the pre-GameFi era, game assets were held by players, but the game itself was still entirely owned by Developed by Lianyou Studio. Although some mechanisms can be voted on through on-chain voting, due to the high iteration cost and slow speed of centralized production, the parts that players can decide are very limited, and they have not truly participated in the leading development of the game.
However, in Dragonverse Neo, due to its rapid iteration and even the ability for players to participate in the iteration, $MBOX holders can significantly increase their participation in governance and quickly implement proposals approved by the community. MOBOX has truly created a chain game that represents the will of players.
Currently, Dragonverse Neo is about to open closed beta, and follow-up plans are in progress.
Enter the BTC ecosystem
According to the official Twitter, Dragonverse Neo will be deployed inBitmap Tech (formerly Recursiverse)Launched on BTC L2. Since the beginning of this year, the Bitcoin Inscription ecology has been booming, which has also paved the way for Dragonverse Neo to have unlimited possibilities for its performance in the capital market.
